Question

Help, I'll fan and medal
The transformation from f to g represents a __________ stretch.

f(x) = Square root of x. and g(x) = 6Square root of x.

Note: Use all lowercase letters in your response.

Answer 1

any ideas?

Answer 2

y=a√x
a is still the slope, except we're going off to the right since that's what a sqrt graph looks like (attached as a file), so what happens when,
slope=rise/run=6/1
that means, from the original graph, starting at the vertex (0,0), you go up 6 units, and to the right 1 unit, likewise, and from that, you see whether or not the new graph is being stretched either horizontally compared to the original, or vertically

Answer 3

Vertical stretch?

Answer 4

there we go, for some reason my symbols weren't cooperating, and correct!
